I don’t know how long add-apt-repository has been around, but I’ve found it very useful for installing some of the bleeding edge stuff I want to test:
$ for ppa in do-core team-xbmc nvidia-vdpau chromium-daily directhex/monoxide
do
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:$ppa
done
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get install chromium-browser nvidia-glx-195 gnome-do xbmc monodevelop
Is there anything like this for debian proper, I wonder?
